X-Git-Tag: v3.10~7
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=706b23bde27a391f0974df2a8351661770fa2e07;p=pandora-kernel.git

Fix: kernel/ptrace.c: ptrace_peek_siginfo() missing __put_user() validation

This __put_user() could be used by unprivileged processes to write into
kernel memory.  The issue here is that even if copy_siginfo_to_user()
fails, the error code is not checked before __put_user() is executed.

Luckily, ptrace_peek_siginfo() has been added within the 3.10-rc cycle,
so it has not hit a stable release yet.
